If this is correct, then what goes in the space titled "Parent"?

I don't know the answer myself, only downloading the chart this week.
Looking at the chart header, because the "Planted" space was right next 
to "Parent", I thought that the *Parent* was the pumpkin that the seed came from
(including the "who grew it" part right in its name).

E.g.  Parent= 456 Smith 98 (this is pumpkin from whose seed grew the plant 
you're growing the female on- the female that the growth chart is recording)    
      Propagator= 789 Jones 97 (this is the plant the male flower came from, which
pollenated the female that the growth chart is recording)

Is this example correct?
Perhaps Mike S. can shed some light on what was intended with these names here?
